SpringOne2GX 2015 replay: Documenting RESTful APIs

News | Pieter Humphrey | January 12, 2016 | ...

Recorded at SpringOne2GX 2015. Track: Web / Javascript Track Speaker: Andy Wilkinson Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/documenting-restful-apis An API's documentation is a vital part of making it easy to understand and easy to use. RESTful APIs are no different. In this talk we'll look at what should be included in your RESTful API's documentation and, just as importantly, what should be omitted. Using real-word examples, both good and bad, we'll discuss how the documentation should be structured so that it's informative, succinct, and easy to read. Having identified what…

SpringOne2GX 2015 replay: Stream Processing at Scale with Spring XD and Kafka

News | Pieter Humphrey | January 12, 2016 | ...

Recorded at SpringOne2GX 2015. Track: Big Data Speaker: Marius Bogoevici Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/stream-processing-at-scale-with-spring-xd-and-kafka In the recent years, drastic increases in data volume, as well as a greater demand for low latency have led to a radical shift in business requirements and application development methods. Near-realtime data processing has started to become more prevalent, and high-throughput messaging systems such as Apache Kafka have emerged as key building blocks. Focusing on developer experience and productivity, Spring XD makes it…

SpringOne2GX 2015 replay: The State of Securing RESTful APIs with Spring

News | Pieter Humphrey | January 12, 2016 | ...

Recorded at SpringOne2GX 2015. Track: Web / Javascript track Speaker: Rob Winch Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/state-of-securing-restful-apis-with-spring The many benefits of a RESTful architecture has made it the standard way in which to design web based APIs. For example, the principles of REST state that we should leverage standard HTTP verbs which helps to keep our APIs simple. Server components that are considered RESTFul should be stateless which help to ensure that they can easily scale. We can leverage caching to gain further performance and scalability benefits.

Spring Integration Zip 1.0.0.M1 and others

Releases | Artem Bilan | January 11, 2016 | ...

Dear Spring Community,

The Spring Integration team wants to wish you a Happy New Year!

We have been super-busy working on new features and improvements. Here is an overview of our recent activities around Spring Integration and Spring AMQP:

  • We made several maintenance releases of Spring Integration 4.2.x, the most recent being Spring Integration 4.2.4. All other maintenance versions will be released only on demand.

  • Spring Integration 4.3 is planned for this summer. Furthermore, for version 5.0, we started looking more closely at incorporating Reactive Streams into the Framework.

  • Similarly with the Spring AMQP project, the current maintenance version is 1.5.3 and 1.6 has been started, too.

  • Spring Integration Java DSL 1.1.1 is available, too. You can find several Java DSL samples in the latest Spring Integration Manual, by the way.

European conferences with strong Spring content

News | Juergen Hoeller | January 11, 2016 | ...

Kicking off 2016, here are my personal recommendations for European developer conferences with particularly strong Spring content in the first half of the year:

  • Topconf Linz: Feb 1-3, featuring various Spring-related talks in the Cloud & Microservice Architectures track and a dedicated Spring Boot workshop ahead of the show. An English-language conference in my home-city which happens to be a tech hotspot in Austria...
  • JAX Germany: Apr 19-21, with a well-established dedicated Spring track and several Spring-related talks across other conference tracks. Note: JAX is primarily a German-language conference, so the Spring talks there will be delivered in German as well.
  • Spring I/O Barcelona: May 19-20, our new annual European Spring conference in its second iteration, at a perfect time for visiting the city of Barcelona! This will…

This Week in Spring - January 5th, 2016 (5th Anniversary Edition!)

Engineering | Josh Long | January 06, 2016 | ...

Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring and welcome back from what I hope was a restive, fun new year!

This week, we mark the fifth anniversary of This Week in Spring which Adam Fitzgerald and I started (based on some discussion with Keith Donald in January 2011) fresh from the 2010 holidays.

Since then I've done my level-headed best to publish it every week (no exceptions! no missed weeks!) before midnight in Hawaii on Tuesday, every week, no matter what timezone I find myself in for that week! The world's a big place, so from the perspective of someone sitting in, say, New York City, it may seem sometimes like this blog goes up midday Monday (00:00AM in various Asian countries) or early morning Wednesday (23:59 in Hawaii) - that's a lot of variability! But I assure, you it's always

Testing Spring Cloud Projects

Engineering | Marcin Grzejszczak | January 04, 2016 | ...

Welcome to my first blog post as a Spring Cloud team member :)

It's been a month since I joined and it's worth to share some of the interesting things that took place during that time.

If you've been reading any of my posts at my Too Much Coding blog then you know that I'm crazy about two things - testing and microservices. Since all that I do at the moment is microservice related today's post will be about testing.

The Spring Cloud projects

When I joined Spring Cloud team I did a quick scan of the Github and it turned out that we have quite a few projects to govern including:

SpringOne2GX 2015 replay: Spring Boot and JRebel

News | Pieter Humphrey | January 04, 2016 | ...

Recorded at SpringOne2GX 2015. Track: Core Spring Speakers: Adam Koblentz and Josh Long Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/springboot-jrebel-cf Abstract: Spring Boot, the new convention-over-configuration centric framework from the Spring team at Pivotal, marries Spring's flexibility with conventional, common sense defaults to make application development not just fly, but pleasant! Spring Boot gives you a huge leg up over normal starter projects, now let's give you another boost by adding JRebel. With JRebel, the average Java developer saves over 1 work-month per year by…

SpringOne2GX 2015 replay: Data Driven Action: a primer on Data Science

News | Pieter Humphrey | January 04, 2016 | ...

Track: Big Data Speakers: Sarah Aerni, Srivatsan Ramanujam, Jarrod Vawdrey Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/data-driven-action-a-primer-on-data-science Abstract: In all industries, as software is eating the world, data is feeding software. However, to truly get value out of the data being generated, it must be analyzed and made actionable. Transformation in many industries actually means precisely this, data-driven action. From creating new television shows, to smart devices that help make your life easy, save precious limited resources, or…

SpringOne2GX 2015 replay: Boot your search with Spring
